So either EA messed something up with how pace works in game or it’s working exactly as intended and they wanted there to be a very minor difference between fast players and slow players. People said they wanted a wider variety of players to be usable and this does make that happen

Gotta be tough for them to find a balance. If you go too far in one direction, then pace is too powerful and anybody below 70 pace will never be touched. Too far the other way and everyone with 90+ pace just gets ran down by everyone. It’s gotta be difficult to get that balance right.

There’s also a difference between running with and without the ball. And I believe if you have the ball, balance, dribbling and maybe even ball control effect how fast a player can run as well.

yup every dog has his day, hughes maybe can get one good sprint in a game. I remember rooney last year on Man U was clocked with the fastest pace by a player that season, FUT rating pace was in the 70s I think.

Bit of a flawed vid imo. He talks about sanes speed IRL compared to fifa. If that is 14.6MPH and he would expect them to run at another 10MPH faster, they’ll be able to run the length of the pitch in like 6 seconds? Stupid in Fifa terms

That was a daft point yeah, Sane won't have had the ball most of the time when clicked irl.

Doesn't change the fact that pace is basically irrelevant now, because the difference between the fastest and the slowest is minimal. What about when playing with Messi against Chielini or something like that? You just can't outrun anyone anymore if this doesn't get patched.

I'm all for slower gameplay, that's why I love FIFA19. But I want to be rewarded when I send the perfect throughball and not getting to walk in the mud so his defender can keep up with me.

Ofc you’ll be rewarded for the perfect through ball, because your player will be almost at full speed vs a flat footed defender. It hasn’t changed the fact that 1-2s are still key because your players are using their acceleration

This is less true that you might think. Have had dozens of situations where pace seemed off balance. Quick players such as Mbappe, CR7, Bale, etc don't have the blistering pace they should be having.

It's no gamebreaker though, but they went overboard with adjusting pace. They should find the middle ground and then the game is absolutely perfect.

I’m personally a fan of this change! I’ve always been a tactical player and this year so far I’m liking the gameplay to a point where I have to utilise the space on the pitch.... rather than ping pong... through ball... goal
